Chapter 784
[The Gambling King of a generation had passed away. Tim Grimm passed away before he could usher in
Christmas.]
Less than an hour after Tim’s death, the news had already been exposed by the media.
Tim was the richest man in Venturas.
This news shocked the people of Venturas and Greyport.
“Dad, Dad…” Jaydon knelt before the hospital bed and held his father’s hand, unwilling to believe this fact.
Dressed in a black suit, Cassius stood at the side with a sad expression. “Jaydon, the dead can’t be revived. Let’s
take care of Dad’s funeral first.”
Jaydon was still immersed in grief and shock. His handsome face was covered with sorrow. “Dad couldn’t have died.
Dad was admitted to the hospital the day before yesterday. How could he have passed away so suddenly today?
“There must be something fishy about Dad’s death…”
Cassius’s expression was solemn as he said sadly, “Dad has always had a cerebral infarction, and his health has
always been poor.
“The doctor said that Dad had a myocardial infarction caused by cerebral infarction. He died before he could be
resuscitated.”
After saying that, Cassius sighed. His face, which was usually emotionless, revealed endless sorrow.
Jaydon did not listen
tall. He was still unwilling to believe this fact.

This was too sudden.
Grace was in tears. She kept shaking her father’s body. “Dad, don’t die.” She cried. “I won’t let you die.”
“Jaydon, Dad is gone. What should we do?” Grace cried.
Jaydon could not be bothered to comfort his sister. Tears kept falling from his eyes.
Other than the siblings, Tim’s other children were also standing at the side.
However, none of them dared to stand in front of their father’s body.
The Grimm family was a large one.
Tim had always been a generous and sentimental person. Therefore, after he became rich, he guided and
supported his younger brother and two younger sisters.
At the same time, he had been very romantic and charming all his life. There were seven or eight women who had
given birth to his children.
After Tim died of illness, the entire family rushed to the hospital. Some people who were only distantly related to
the Grimm family also rushed over.
Just the family members alone had filled the VIP floor. Almost the entire floor was filled with people from the Grimm
family.
Cries were heard in the hospital.
Of course, some people were really crying, while others hypocritically pretended to cry,
After all, the death of Tim meant that everyone could have a share of the inheritance.
“Tim, you passed away so suddenly. What should we do now that you’ve left your family behind?” Yasmine and
Yvette also cried in each other’s arms.
Jaydon looked at his father’s body. His mind was in a state of confusion and daze.
He hated his father for falling in love with someone else back then, causing his mother to commit suicide out of
sadness. As a result, he did not like to be close to his father.
However, it was undeniable that he and Grace were his father’s most beloved children. Perhaps because of his
father’s guilt toward his mother, his father treated him and Grace far better than the other younger siblings of his.
Although Jaydon was ranked second in his family, Cassius was not Tim’s biological son.
Thus, Jaydon was his father’s eldest son, in truth.
The family business was supposed to be handed over to Jaydon. However, Jaydon could not let go of his hatred for
his father. Therefore, Jaydon chose to start his own business after graduation and refused to join the family
business.
Tim had no choice but to let Cassius temporarily take over the company.
“The dead can’t be revived. It’s better to take care of Dad’s funeral,” Cassius comforted Jaydon sadly.
Cassius was now the top executive director of the Grimm Group, in charge of nearly 70 percent of the Grimm
Group’s businesses.
Now that his father was dead, he was the leader of the Grimm Group. Therefore, he was not as sad as Jaydon
about his father’s death.
Jaydon took a deep breath. His eyes were as red as blood. “Dad is dead. This is too sudden. When I saw Dad the
day before yesterday, Dad was still well. How could he… have passed away so suddenly?

“I’ll ask the doctor again. I’m sure the cause of Dad’s death isn’t simple…”
Cassius frowned. “Cut it out. Dad’s health has always been poor!
“You haven’t been there for Dad all these years. And you don’t know anything about Dad’s actual physical
condition.
“The doctor has already done a checkup. Dad died of a sudden myocardial infarction.
“Aren’t you deliberately making our family a laughingstock by causing a scene like this?”
“Yes, Tim passed away before the new year. This news doesn’t sound good to begin with. If something else
happens, it will make people laugh at our Grimm family.”
Usually, when someone did something immoral, people would curse him to die on Christmas Eve
other
Now, Tim had died on Christmas Eve. His reputation had suffered when the news spread. If other melodramatic
inside stories were to happen, they would be made a laughingstock.
In any case, Tim was already dead.
It was better to hold a grand funeral to preserve some dignity.
After all, wealthy families valued their reputation the most.
The few elders also started to persuade Jaydon. Their purpose was to let Tim be buried as soon as possible.
They were still waiting to split the inheritance.
However, Jaydon still refused to listen. He felt that everything had happened too suddenly.
Although his father was not in good health, he could not have passed away so suddenly.
However, he was devastated now, and his brain could not function properly.
“Jay, let’s deal with your father’s funeral first.
“The dead can’t be revived. We still have to continue with our lives.”
“Dad, Dad!” When Grace heard that, she lay on the bed and cried.
